Thyroid hormones undergo extensive metabolism to regulate hormone activity. A labeled thyroid hormone would be useful to track hormone metabolism through various pathways. While radiolabeled thyroid hormones have been synthesized and used for in vivo studies, a stable isotope labeled form of thyroid hormone is required for studying thyroid hormone metabolism by LC-MS/MS, an analytical technique that has certain advantages without the complications of radioactivity. Here we report the synthesis of 13C9- 15N-T2 and 13C9-15N- T4, two labeled thyroid hormone derivatives suitable for in vivo LC-MS/MS studies. Supplemental materials are available for this article.
